most of the insurance company have excess loading charges.
if u find one without it will be good.
right now bank negara has imposed RM12k min amount insured for ol' cars, my kancil 17years also after ncd 55% has to pay RM336 (etiqa) include roadtax via agent, that amount also include 15% loading (extra amount after ncd), right now i'm thinking just to get 3rd party insurance but a lot told me yes it's cheap but if anything happens maybe we'll have to crank out more than we pay for ins& the difference is not that of a gap u can satisfy wit, i'm also in dilema 2:bawling::hmmmm:

Not most. All. Cars above the age of 9 years are subject to a 5% loading fee and must be insured for not less than RM12,000.

Which kinda blows.

Do what I do, renew over the phone. They don't ask to review the car but be smart about the claims. Claim only after a few months after your renewal.

Nowadays all got loading. I used to get my Insurance without loading because my cousin works there, but lately she also cannot help. Say higher up have imposed the loading.
My 16 years old load 15%, My VR over 20 years load 20%....:bawling:

They won't check the windscreen, as mentioned by bro. Izso please claim only after a couple of months. Then when you renew your yearly premium the windscreen insurance will be added...

Bro.,
NCD increases every year if you do not make any insurance claim.

NCD For Private Car
Period of Insurance - Discount
After the first year of insurance - 25%
After the second year of insurance - 30%
After the third year of insurance - 38.33%
After the fourth year of insurance - 45%
After five or more years of insurance - 55%

Or do you means rebate?
Yes, unless you buy your insurance direct from the insurance company. Mine only gives 10%

When you renew over the phone, do you call the agent or the insurance company?

Car :- Kancil 660 (A) 1996

Min insured value :- RM12000
Premium Gross Contribution :- RM535.50
NCD :- RM535.50-55% = RM338.71
Loading :- 15%xRM535.50 = RM 80.33
Stamp Duty:- RM10.00
Total:- RM535.50 - RM338.71 + RM80.33 + RM10 = RM287.12
Road Tax:- RM20.00
Total pay out:- RM307.12
Total c/w service charge:- RM336.00
Service Charge Only :- RM336.00 - 307.12 = RM28.88

Well i think it is ok if to consider that i can only do it non electronically just ol' school style walk-in to the relevan places with time, petrol, parking fees to consider.

Bro. twisted,
Mine was bought direct from Insurance company. Since mine is old car too got loading but they add in the loading and less 55% NCD on the total, means I get 55% off the loading too. Further more I get another 10% off for direct purchase of insurance....

than good for u coz u have the time & the choice to get it cheaper, if only those car insurer have more walk in counter. as for me just don't have the time, so which ever made my life easier but not on the high end price is just ok, now will need a piggy bank & throw in 50bucks a month for next year turn as 4 now got 2 cars to cover, maybe part time night work @ local 24hrs shop/restaurans towards the end of each cycle lehh, would u mind sharing which insurer that u use, maybe mod would not mind if u r wrote it here coz it'll help forumers to lessen their burden.
